Apply to KCU-COM

Step 1: Complete the AACOMAS Application

The American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Applications Service (AACOMAS) offers you the convenience of completing a single online application for each osteopathic medical school you choose. KCU's College of Osteopathic Medicine applicants are encouraged to begin the application process a year prior to their anticipated matriculation. KCU admits on a rolling admissions process.

Step 2: Complete the Secondary Application

Upon review of your AACOMAS application, KCU invites qualified applicants to complete our secondary application online.

Submit two letters of recommendation (if you submitted through AACOMAS, we will download letters to your KCU file).

  • One from a pre-med advisor or committee; may substitute with a letter from a science faculty member
  • One from a physician (DO or MD)
  • Additional letters may be submitted on your behalf in addition to required letters
  • Letters must be dated within two years of matriculation year (i.e., if starting classes at KCU in August 2023, letters must be dated no earlier than May 2021)

Step 3: Complete your Interview with KCU

Invitations for interviews will be sent to the email provided in your AACOMAS application. Interviews are conducted virtually and are by invitation only.  Interviews start in September and typically end in March. Interview days consist of a general information session, student panel, interviews and a group activity. You will be notified of a decision via email within six weeks of your on-campus interview.
